Father’s Day Recipes for the Grill, Fryer, and More

Dad always deserves a feast fit for a king on Father’s Day, amirite? Maybe his favorite meal is a classic burger, or a fancy surf and turf is his spread of choice. Chances are, it’s going to be something fried, grilled, or smothered with cheese (so that’s where you get it). Well, break out the beertails and treat Dad to a few of these recipes that’ll have him wishing every day was Father’s Day.


Beer Battered Onion Rings With Buttermilk Ranch Dip

If you’re going to go the onion ring route, they have to be beer battered and fried to perfection. Homemade ranch not optional. (via Joy the Baker)

Beeramisu

Brisket Grilled Cheese

A grilled cheese may seem like it’s nothing special, but when you’ve slaved all day on the brisket that’s on the inside, it’s a different story. Nothing says “I love you, Dad” quite like gooey cheese and shredded meat. (via Spicy Southern Kitchen)
